Here are some tips to keep in mind on how we've sorted our LED Christmas lights and what residential vs. commercial means when it comes to LED sets. (We hope this will make it easier for you to find just the right set of lights for your project.)
1. We've sorted them by color or shape.
- Shop by Shape - use this category if you already know what shape of LED you are looking for. We carry the mini ice (M5), razzberry (G12), Super-razz (G25), C6, C7, C9, Ice Cube, Star and Pine Cone Shapes.
- Shop by Color - use this category if you have selected your color for your project and want to see all of available shapes in that color.
2. Our Main Categories are divided into 2-3 subcategories to make it even easier to pick your set. You might have to bounce around between the 3 categories in case something you are looking for is out of stock. For instance if you are looking at a set with 70 LEDs that is not available, check to see if you can get 2 sets of the 35's.
- Residential (Standard) Sets - these sets have standard plugs and are divided into sets with 35 LEDs and 70 LEDs for our mini LED lights (M5, C6, G12 sets). Our larger lens shapes come in 25 LEDs per set. Residential sets can be connected up to 210 watts per run - for 35 LED's per set, that translates to roughly 80 sets and for 70 LEDs it means 40 sets (we always round down for safety when it comes to numbers like connectivity.) (Note the spacing is 8" on C7 and C9 shapes in residential vs. 12" for commercial.)
- Commercial Sets - these sets look just like the residential sets when it comes to color, shape and brightness but these sets have proprietary coax connectors and can be run up to 125 sets in series for our sets that use a power adapter and 66 sets that have on-string rectification (their part numbers end in -RY). They also have the advantage of having accessories like spacer wires and Y and T adapters that allow you to run your lights all over your installation with a minimum of extension cords. These lights all require a power cord or power adapter (noted on each item's description.)
The LED Christmas light sets are injection molded and the LEDs cannot be removed, replaced or exchanged for a different color. For this flexibility, see our LED C7 and C9 retrofit bulbs
All of the sets are have plastic durable casings, are weather resistant, up to 90% more efficient that traditional lights, and have fade resistant colors.
LED Christmas lights are for Decorating Year Around
LED Christmas lights aren't just for use during the holidays anymore. They can be used throughout the year for any occasion, inside and out, or simply for every day use. Mini LED lights are being used in homes, businesses and towns across the country to lend warmth and light, both during the Holidays and for special events.
If you've seen the tree at Ceasar's Palace, the National Christmas tree, trees at Columbia or Bithell University or have visited downtown Dallas, to name a few locations, you've seen these beautiful LED lights in use.

Benefits of LED Decorative Lighting
- LED Christmas lights provide beautiful, radiant light and are more energy efficient than the traditional mini lights - by up to 90%.
- Our LED Christmas light sets - both residential and commercial are constructed with weatherproof materials, making them impervious to moisture and are extremely durable.
- LED light sets don't contain the fragile filaments like incandescent bulbs, so they aren't easily broken or damaged.
- Our Residential LED sets are rated to be connected 3 in series by UL
- Our Commercial LED light sets are not rated by UL but are tested to allow connections of up to 125 continuous strands on each run. UL is a testing standard that is focused on consumer products whose configuration is fixed and can be tested. Since users can assemble the commercial LED sets in a myriad of ways with spacers, adapters and splitters, these applications fall outside of UL guidelines.
Another great benefit of our mini LED lights is that they remain cool to the touch, no matter how long they've been lit increasing temperature by only 1 degree.
We do suggest that you utilize a surge protector when plugging in your residential or commercial LED light sets to protect your sets from unpredictable electrical surges.
Decorating with LED Christmas Lights
Think outside the Holiday box for other uses for these versatile LED lights. Here are a few ideas on how to use them for both Christmas and other occasions throughout the year.
Decorating for Weddings and Receptions with LED Lights
- Decorate small trees and shrubs
- Use them on the cake table, both around the cake itself and running vertically all around the table.
- Wrap the mini ice lights around layers of tulle and use them to enhance doorways, posts or tables, such as the wedding party table or buffet table.
- Ice sculptures will glow with warmth (without the added heat!) with the addition of M5 LED lights surrounding the base of the sculpture and running around the table as well.
- Trellises are often used to decorate at weddings. Add beauty and light by using M5 LED's strung diagonally across the trellises.
- Buffet tables, topiaries, and centerpieces are also great backdrops for mini ice LED lights.
- Larger trees outside the church or reception hall will look fantastic with strings of M5 LED lights strung around the base and perhaps the lower limbs as well.
- Are you having an outdoor reception? Use several sets of M5 LED lights to decorate your tents, tables and any outdoor fountains, to create a romantic and magical atmosphere for you and your guests to enjoy.

- LED's are perfect for lighting up the outside of your home as well. String them around your shrubs, trees, mailbox, and the grapevine tree that adorns your porch.
